Activate! April 16 - April 23 presents:
I don't think I've ever had this many ticket giveaways on one show! Tonight, you have the chance to attend four different shows for free when I give away tickets to see Local H at Canal Club, Del McCourey at the Beacon Theatre, The Zombies in Charlottesville, and the two-night grand opening of Richmond's newest venue The Broadberry! Plus, I have tracks from Dirty Paws and Hypercolor who both have album release shows, a preview of Record Store Day, and a track from experimental artist Anduin (pictured) who is performing at the weekend-long RVA Noise Fest III.
